“””For the love of cooking”” In grand scheme of things, food is what we are all working for. It’s the hunger that can make a person do anything! This is a picture of vegetable dumplings a.k.a. momo that I prepared from the scratch during the lockdown. Street food was a big part of my life when things were “”normal””. Living alone, away from family and friends, the whole exercise of preparing momo was my attempt of recreating normalcy by doing something I love. Place: Windisch, Switzerland Date: June 20, 2020″.
